Nagasaki Journey: The Photographs of Yosuke Yamahata
is an exhibit of sixty photographs taken in Nagasaki on August 10, 1945,
the day after the atomic bombing of that city. The exhibition was presented
as part of the world's observance of the fiftieth anniversary of the bombing
of Nagasaki and Hiroshima -- remembered world-wide in the summer of 1995.

The exhibition had an unprecedented, simultaneous three-city
opening in late July, 1995 at the Ansel Adams Center for Photography, San
Francisco, the International Center of Photography, New York, and Chitose
Pia Hall, Nagasaki. Its main components are sixty photographs, a twenty-eight
minute film, and a 128-page bilingual book.

The photographs in Nagasaki Journey were printed from
a completely new set of digitally-restored
negatives. While some of Yosuke Yamahata's photographs have been seen
publicly in the fifty years since the bombing, this was the first comprehensive
exhibition of the archive, and its first publication outside of Japan.
